Even playing it today, it's still fun!
GAMEPLAY: Everyone should be very familiar with the way this game plays. In fact I'd be very surprised if there is a person out there who hasn't played this. lol But I guess I need to explain it anyway.
You play a yellow ball that has to go through a maze and eat dots and fruit. But there are ghost that are after you. If you touch one of them, you lose a life. (those few lives you have have to last throughout your entire game) But of course like an game, there has to be a way to combat the enemy. And the way to do this in this game is to eat the special dots so you can eat them. Of course they will run away from you though.
This game actually takes reflexes and strategy. And the Atari 5200 handles the controls very well (simple though they are). It can be very challenging, but in an amazingly fun way.
GRAPHICS AND SOUNDS: Well...they are very basic sounds and graphics, but this doesn't take away from the gameplay today. The sounds consist of bleeps for the most part and the graphics are very simple, but some how very cute.
SUMMERY: This game is a classic, and still fun. This is an uncomplecated game that you can enjoy any time.
